New machine, used old inlet hose as it was a nice rubber one instead of hard plastic that came with it. OK for about a minute then got the Check Water light on & a slight drip from the inlet hose at back of machine which was going into a little drainage slot. Fair enough, put the new hose on then. Can’t get rid of warning light, should it reset itself after drying out or is it an engineer job?
Oh well, back to the kitchen sink!

Power off, towels on floor, tip backwards. Catch water in flooded base with towels.

When installing a new machine, it is a good idea to always use the new hose(s) provided by the manufacturer, with the new machine.
The ‘thin plastic hose’ will have been tested by Bosch, to ensure that it conforms to the necessary design specifications. It will also be less prone to bursting, perishing and kinking. It should also have its own filter built in.
Failing to use the new hose(s) could also void the warranty, if the machine should subsequently break down. The old hoses (or even new ones from another supplier) could be said not to be to the required design standard.
Had you used the new hose from the outset, you could have avoided the current inconvenience.

Thanks, Simon46, I can put my marigolds away again now. I was hoping for a simple solution like that, its just that there was nothing in the manual about it.
cheers
